Macro usage query syntax does not produce correct results in Confluence Cloud search

Deleted user July 13, 2020

Hello,
I am using Confluence Cloud 1000, and am trying to see which pages on our wiki use a certain macro called "google-drive-docs".

When I enter the following query syntax (found on a Confluence Cloud support page) into the Advanced Search:
macroName:google-drive-docs*
the results returned simply have the text "doc" or "drive" on those pages, not the macro google-drive-docs inserted on those pages.  

The same thing happens when I use the query:
macroName:excerpt-include*
to see pages with that macro inserted in them.  The results returned simply have the text "include" on the pages, not the macro excerpt-include inserted on those pages. 

Why aren't these queries producing the correct results, showing me which pages on our Confluence Cloud wiki have the google-drive-docs or excerpt-include macros inserted in them?  

It would be even better if the Admin Manage Apps > Macro Usage section that displays the number of times a certain macro is used, also displayed the Confluence page URLs where the macro is used!

If it matters, the google-drive-docs macro is categorized as an xhtml macro, and the excerpt-include macro is categorized as an Advanced macro.

Thank you for any help you can provide.
